It also raises their level by 60 in an instant.

From the very first episode his minor facial expressions were a red flag for me. In some he was smirking when the ML was hurting or in trouble. In others they did close shots of his hands showing how uneasy he was that our adorable XQS managed to come out on top even after all the problems and hurt. Then I thought maybe I was reading too much into him when he seemed to support his youngest brother only to quickly kick him and hurt him when he was down. And then in the latest where he suggested to his older brother about the land that was lent out 100 years ago. Like what are you scheming?!

At the beginning it was mentioned they looked alike but only a few knew how the boss actually looked like so they wouldn't confuse the two. I was wondering what if the writer used our ML as the original inspiration for how the character looks like so that's why they look similar. But wouldn't mind a hidden reason as to why. 😊

That's a good idea. Today's new episodes were very good and hope the next two are also the same. So you will get some good change of pace and progress once you jump back in.

I mean story, keep forgetting it's a story not a game. When he was inspecting the tomb with the swords he mentioned all the names were scratched off. Made me wonder what they could mean and why they were scratched off.

Aw I see. Thank you.

That is a good point especially when XQS recalls the original story had her die before she reached it and they never won that land back.

Yes me too. I was like this is it, the turning point. Soooo good.

His visuals as LCZ are sizzling. Gosh just one scene took over the entire episode. Really hope we see more of him soon. I think the calendar hints at they meeting in 2-4 episodes.

Yes, that was so heartbreaking. And these episodes really showed us just how different the brothers are. He feels guilt for not being able to save his parents and sect yet he saved 10 other sects without even knowing the extend of his good actions. His brothers are trying to blackmail others to pay them money they don't have a right to claim while he has people giving him resources and man power to help rebuild in return to his kindness and bravery he showed in saving them all by revealing the bad guys. He buried his fallen comrades and build their memorials in three days without sleep while they ran around scheming to get money to rebuild forgetting all the teachings their father taught them.

Omg thank you for this treasure of a clip. He is just too adorable and beautiful to look at.

That scene was beautiful and one of my favorites now. I am going to hope it was legit kindness and also very nice fan service. Our poor ML needed that hug.

Agree. And the trapped in a videogame/story isn't done as often as other tropes so I am enjoying it very much. Also the sprinkles of modern day terms and things like the mojito cocktail. That cracked me up.

Madame Wu gave him the dagger that belonged to her guard at the military camp after his friend has been revealed to be a villain. It was in there all along but XQS didn't know. He was looking in a tomb where he had hidden it in his story changes and ended up finding it in the dagger instead. He also noticed scribbles in the tomb that someone had scratched off. Makes me wonder if others or he himself have played the game various times before.

I'm confused, the system has told him if he became the sect leader then the changes he made to the story would kick in or he could make them kick in. But now that he became the sect leader he was only given two choices, pick a different character to play or leave the game. I wonder if the masked figure picked the first choice or got lost in the game losing his real self like the system warned XQS that it would happen to him. But still I was happy for his small wins, he got to get some precious memories of his family from the real character.

Right. But I think the prince was waiting to see who would bury the fallen comrades and make their memorial plaques before handing the letter. His excuse was he felt XQS wasn't in a good mindset to hand him the letter. The other two brothers pretty much left right after the fight and just hanged out trying to see what they could use to rebuild under their own two names.

They literally forgot the duties of a sect leader, didn't even bother to bury their fallen comrades, didn't put their swords or names in the memorial sword room and then went against their fathers teachings and tried to have people pay what was lent to them for free. The brothers failed their father hard. And the previews hint at even worse ideas from these two.

From disliking certain characters to feeling like the secrets are being revealed very slowly it can drain one. But I feel like these two latest episodes 19-20 really did the story some good. Loved them and they again reminded me that the episodes feel so short. Plus it gave me one of my favorite scenes in the sword room, that hug was just too precious.

Me too, that hug scene was too precious to ruin it with betrayal. He really needed someone on his side and to hug him, poor XQS.

I agree. I feel like he is being used as it was hinted that it might have been the case with the two sect leaders his schemes ended up killing. Either he was tricked by someone who disguised himself as his boss or it was the boss and he is lying. But I feel like the painting discussion hinted at the former. Yet the previews show one of the followers killing off more members on the orders of the boss so hmmm I am confused.
